The panel does not state a nitrate content, and nitrate is the part of beetroot the research is about, so we cannot give you that number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat you are actually getting, per 1 scoop (3.25 g)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeet Root\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1375 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHibiscus\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1000 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApple Juice Powder\u003c\/strong\u003e — 500 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThose three add up to 2,875 mg of a 3.25 g (3,250 mg) scoop. The remaining 375 mg is the maltodextrin and stevia listed below. Nothing here is standardised to a marker compound, so there is no extract arithmetic to show you — these are plain powders at their stated weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWorth knowing before you buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nitrate content is not stated. That matters more than the milligram figure on the front. Beetroot research is run on juice or concentrate dosed to a measured nitrate load, commonly around 6.4 mmol, which is roughly 400 mg of nitrate. Without a nitrate figure on this panel you cannot line 1375 mg of powder up against that, and neither can we.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDried beet root powder is also not beetroot juice concentrate. It is the whole root, dried and milled, and its nitrate level varies with the crop and the processing. If you are buying on nitrate content, buy something that prints one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hibiscus at 1000 mg is not standardised either. No anthocyanin content is given. Treat this as a beet and hibiscus drink that tastes of what it is made from, not as a measured dose of anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to take it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne scoop (3.25 g) stirred into water or juice, once a day. Thirty scoops in the tub, so one a day is a 30-day tub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOther ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaltodextrin, Stevia. This is a powder, so there is no capsule and no gelatin question. The panel declares no allergens. It does not state whether the product is certified vegan, only that no animal-derived ingredient is listed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCautions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeetroot is a dietary source of nitrate, and hibiscus has its own effect on blood pressure readings. Both can add to blood-pressure medication, and nitrate can interact with nitrate heart medicines such as nitroglycerin. This panel does not state how much nitrate is in a scoop. If you take blood-pressure medication or a nitrate drug, speak to your doctor before using this. Beetroot can also turn urine and stools pink or red, which is harmless and expected. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal is damaged or missing. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not exceed the recommended dose. If you are pregnant, nursing, under 18, taking prescription medication or living with a medical condition, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before starting this or any supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThese statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
